Repair synchronization bug in the metadata cache in PHDF5
Also repair numerous other bugs that surfaced in testing the
bug fix.
Description:
While operations modifying metadata must be collective, we allow
independant reads. This allows metadata caches on different processes
to adjust to different sizes, and to place the entries on their dirty
lists in different orders. Since only process 0 actually writes
metadata to disk (all other processes thought they did, but the writes
were discarded on the theory that they had to be collective), this made
it possible for another process to modify metadata, flush it, and then
read it back in in its original form (pre-modification) form. The
possibilities for file corruption should be obvious.
Solution:
Make the policy that only process 0 can write to file explicit, and
visible to the metadata caches. Thus only process 0 may flush dirty
entries -- all other caches must retain dirty entries until they are
informed by process 0 that the entries are clean.
Synchronization is handled by counting the bytes of dirty cache entries
created, and then synching up between the caches whenever the sum
exceeds an (eventually user specified) limit. Dirty metadata creation
is consistent across all processes because all operations modifying
metadata must be collective.
This change uncovered may bugs which are repaired in this checkin.
It also required modification of H5HL and H5O to allocate file space
on insertion rather than on flush from cache.

Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-)
Description:
Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections.
However, in the process of merging code back, things got stickier and stickier
until I ended up doing a big "sync the two branches up" operation. So... I
brought back all the "infrastructure" fixes from the development branch to the
release branch (which I think were actually making some improvement in
performance) as well as fixed several bugs which had been fixed in one branch,
but not the other.
I've also tagged the repository before making this checkin with the label
"before_signed_unsigned_changes".

Code cleanup, sorta
Description:
Added ifdef sections for "H5_USING_PURIFY" in various places in the code,
which are designed to reduce the spurious "uninitialized memory read" warnings
from purify which are actually OK. Note that this macro will have to be
turned on by adding it to the CFLAGS for the build - I didn't think it was
important enough to add a configure flag for.
Also, the changes in H5HG.c optimize the walks through the objects in a
heap to only look at the 'used' entries instead of all the 'allocated' entries.

Bug Fix
Description:
If an HDF5 file grows larger than its address space, it dies and is unable to
write any data. This is more likely to happen since users are able to change
the number of bytes used to store addresses in the file.
Solution:
HDF5 now throws an error instead of dying. In addition, it "reserves" address
space for the local heap and for object headers (which do not allocate space
immediately). This ensures that after the error occurs, there is enough address
space left to flush the entire file to disk, so no data is lost.
A more complete explanation is at /doc/html/TechNotes/ReservedFileSpace.html

Re-work the way interface initialization routines are specified in the

Description:
Correct potential file corruption from mis-setting the metadata accumulator
address. (Bugfix contributed by Sean Monner <seanm@quadrus.com>)
Solution:
When the new metadata overlaps with the end of the metadata accumulator and
the accumulator grows in size, don't reset the address of the accumulator, since
it hasn't moved.

Checkpoint checkin of FP bug fixes. FP is still quite
buggy, but I must go deal with other matters.
Description:
Fixed two major bugs:
1) H5FPserver.c was clobbering meta data in its care.
2) H5FPserver.c was allocating the same space multiple
times, causing both data and meta data corruption.
Also made minor fixes, added debugging code, and familiarized
myself with the FP code.
All development work with FP enabled was done on Eirene.
On this platform, FP now passes its test reliably with
up to 9 processes. At 10 processes it seg faults every
time. I haven't looked into this issue.
There are also several known locking bugs which have to
be fixed. However, they are of sufficiently low probability
that I didn't bother with them on this pass.
FP has not been tested with deletions -- this should be
done.
Also, need to test FP chunked I/O.
Solution:
1) Modified cache in H5FPserver.c to merge changes correctly.
Found and fixed a bug in H5TB.c in passing.
2) Multiple space allocation was caused by a race condition
with set eoa requests.
Most of these eoa requests appeared to be superfluous, so
I deleted them.
Those issued during the superblock read seemed necessary,
so I inserted a barrier at the end of the superblock read,
to prevent races with allocations.

Bug fix/optimization
Description:
Address slowdown in MPI-I/O file metadata operations that was introduced
mid-stream. We now _require_ a POSIX compliant parallel file system for the
MPI-I/O file driver (as well as for the MPI-POSIX file driver).
Also optimized file open operation when the file is being created by
reducing the number of collective & syncronizing calls.
Additionally, refactor the MPI routines into a common place, eliminating
duplicated code.

Solution:

much easier when C99 is standard on all our supposed platforms, since it has a

Update
Description:
A lot of modifications for the FPHDF5 stuff:
H5AC.c
H5ACprivate.h - Removed AC_find (it's replaced with AC_protect
and AC_unprotect). Added flushing if it's an FPHDF5 driver and
we're doing an AC_set or AC_unprotect with the dirty flag set.
H5B.c - Split up the B_flush function into different functions
since the one function was doing serialization which is better
left as a separate entity.
H5D.c - Removed some FPHDF5 code that was incorrect
H5F.c - Split up the F_flush function so that it no longer
allocates file space. Created new functions (F_init_superblock,
F_read_superblock, and F_write_superblock) for greater modularity
and so that the FPHDF5 non-captain processes can read the
superblock after the captain process writes it.
H5FD.c - Error message correction.
H5FDfphdf5.c - Removed MPI barrier call that wasn't needed.
H5FPclient.c
H5FPserver.c - Modified so that if a process requests data that
isn't exactly aligned, we can return it if we have the block that
contains the requested address.
H5G.c
H5Gent.c
H5Gnode.c
H5HL.c
H5HLpkg.h
H5HLprivate.h
H5Oefl.c - Removed the H5HL_peek function since it was doing a
(now unsafe) holding of the information in the cache. Replaced
with protect and unprotect calls.
H5TB.c - Error fix. The TB_dless function wasn't working
properly.
H5Gstab.c - Format change.

Bug fix
Description:
This fixes a bug in the low-level metadata caching code in the library
which could possibly lose metadata during file I/O when a lot of objects are
inserted into a group.
This also fixes a couple of (similar) fencepost bugs in the B-tree
deletion code.
Solution:
For the metadata bug - call the low-level driver's 'write' routine instead
of H5FD_write.
For the B-tree bug - include the correct number of keys.

Bug Fix & Update
Description:
FPHDF5 was creating files which didn't have the EOA field in the
superblock set correctly. It turns out that the SAP was keeping this
information to itself instead of giving it to the client processes.
Naughty SAP!
Solution:
Have the SAP send this information back to the clients so that they
can update the superblock as necessary. This now creates a file (with
just the root group) that looks correct! Only problem is that there's
extra file space being allocated. Also, at program termination,
there's an infinite loop...

Bug fix and Update
Description:
From Quincey's comments on the code I checked in last night:
- In H5F_close call, the "private" processes should call the
H5F_flush with the "CLEAR_ONLY" flag.
- There's no need for a special case for FPHDF5 in the
FD_real_alloc function since FPHDF5 doesn't define an alloc
function.
- The return type of H5Pset_fapl_fphdf5 should be herr_t instead
of hid_t. I don't know how it got that way in the first place.
- The variable names for MPI types and the structure typedefs
should be switched: H5FP_request/H5FP_request_t to
H5FP_request_t/H5FP_request and so on.
- In the H5FP.c module, I was commiting the H5FP_request MPI
datatype but using the wrong offset field...

Refactoring of Flush Logic
Description:
The Flushing logic passed in multiple flags to indicate what type of
flush it was: closing, invalidate, alloc only. This made extending
the function of the flush logic to handle other flags annoying.
Solution:
I changed it to be just one bitmasked flag to indicate what type of
flushing to do. I also added the CLEAR_ONLY flag, which will be used
in the FPHDF5 stuff.

H5FD_free had a freeing of the freelist part which I needed to
call from the SAP.
- Added support for FPHDF5. If it's a client, then it sends the
allocation or free request to the SAP. The SAP will call the
same code, but it'll actually do the allocation/freeing in that
case.

Bug Fix
Description:
Metadata cache in parallel I/O can cause hangs in applications which
perform independent I/O on chunked datasets, because the metadata cache
can attempt to flush out dirty metadata from only a single process, instead
of collectively from all processes.
Solution:
Pass a dataset transfer property list down from every API function which
could possibly trigger metadata I/O.
Then, split the metadata cache into two sets of entries to allow dirty
metadata to be set aside when a hash table collision occurs during

Lots of performance improvements & a couple new internal API interfaces.
Description:
Performance Improvements:
- Cached file offset & length sizes in shared file struct, to avoid
constantly looking them up in the FCPL.
- Generic property improvements:
- Added "revision" number to generic property classes to speed
up comparisons.
- Changed method of storing properties from using a hash-table
to the TBBT routines in the library.
- Share the propery names between classes and the lists derived
from them.
- Removed redundant 'def_value' buffer from each property.
- Switching code to use a "copy on write" strategy for
properties in each list, where the properties in each list
are shared with the properties in the class, until a
property's value is changed in a list.
- Fixed error in layout code which was allocating too many buffers.
- Redefined public macros of the form (H5open()/H5check, <variable>)
internally to only be (<variable>), avoiding innumerable useless
calls to H5open() and H5check_version().
- Reuse already zeroed buffers in H5F_contig_fill instead of
constantly re-zeroing them.
- Don't write fill values if writing entire dataset.
- Use gettimeofday() system call instead of time() system when
checking the modification time of a dataset.
- Added reference counted string API and use it for tracking the
names of objects opening in a file (for the ID->name code).
- Removed redundant H5P_get() calls in B-tree routines.
- Redefine H5T datatype macros internally to the library, to avoid
calling H5check redundantly.
- Keep dataspace information for dataset locally instead of reading
from disk each time. Added new module to track open objects
in a file, to allow this (which will be useful eventually for
some FPH5 metadata caching issues).
- Remove H5AC_find macro which was inlining metadata cache lookups,
and call function instead.
- Remove redundant memset() calls from H5G_namei() routine.
- Remove redundant checking of object type when locating objects
in metadata cache and rely on the address only.
- Create default dataset object to use when default dataset creation
property list is used to create datasets, bypassing querying
for all the property list values.
- Use default I/O vector size when performing raw data with the
default dataset transfer property list, instead of querying for
I/O vector size.
- Remove H5P_DEFAULT internally to the library, replacing it with
more specific default property list based on the type of
property list needed.
- Remove redundant memset() calls in object header message (H5O*)
routines.
- Remove redunant memset() calls in data I/O routines.
- Split free-list allocation routines into malloc() and calloc()-
like routines, instead of one combined routine.
- Remove lots of indirection in H5O*() routines.
- Simplify metadata cache entry comparison routine (used when
flushing entire cache out).
- Only enable metadata cache statistics when H5AC_DEBUG is turned
on, instead of always tracking them.
- Simplify address comparison macro (H5F_addr_eq).
- Remove redundant metadata cache entry protections during dataset
creation by protecting the object header once and making all
the modifications necessary for the dataset creation before
unprotecting it.
- Reduce # of "number of element in extent" computations performed
by computing and storing the value during dataspace creation.
- Simplify checking for group location's file information, when file
has not been involving in file-mounting operations.
- Use binary encoding for modification time, instead of ASCII.
- Hoist H5HL_peek calls (to get information in a local heap)
out of loops in many group routine.
- Use static variable for iterators of selections, instead of
dynamically allocation them each time.
- Lookup & insert new entries in one step, avoiding traversing
group's B-tree twice.
- Fixed memory leak in H5Gget_objname_idx() routine (tangential to
performance improvements, but fixed along the way).
- Use free-list for reference counted strings.
- Don't bother copying object names into cached group entries,
since they are re-created when an object is opened.
The benchmark I used to measure these results created several thousand
small (2K) datasets in a file and wrote out the data for them. This is
Elena's "regular.c" benchmark.
These changes resulted in approximately ~4.3x speedup of the
development branch when compared to the previous code in the
development branch and ~1.4x speedup compared to the release
branch.
Additionally, these changes reduce the total memory used (code and
data) by the development branch by ~800KB, bringing the development
branch back into the same ballpark as the release branch.
I'll send out a more detailed description of the benchmark results
as a followup note.
New internal API routines:
Added "reference counted strings" API for tracking strings that get
used by multiple owners without duplicating the strings.
Added "ternary search tree" API for text->object mappings.
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}

Bug Fix
Description:
Free blocks of space in the file which were merged with a block before them
were not updating the free list information correctly, allowing space in
the file to over-allocated and potentially corrupted.
Solution:
Correct address of free block during merging.
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}
